Have Walgreens changed from 7 days to 3?

Planning ahead for my March cruise and it looks like booking for the Rapid ID Now tests at Walgreens is only 3 days ahead rather than 7 like it was for us a few weeks ago. Can anyone else confirm?

yes, i noticed the same thing. It's been like that for a few weeks now the change from 7 days to 3 days window.

So now I'm going to have to try and book a test while on the cruise. Bummer!

When I booked in September it was 3 days then. If they did go to 7 it wasn't for long.

I'm heading down for March too. I'm expecting the Covid numbers to be better there than here (Ontario) by then; last weeks numbers were 30% less than the previous and I'm thinking they will continue to plummet. I think Walgreen's change from a 7 to 3 day booking window due to high demand...so maybe they changg back to 7 days by then?

Does the cruiseline not offer post cruise testing? Only a few do this, I noticed. But Disney just announced they are now doing this.

Carnival doesn't provide any testing. Walgreens is the best free option, just somewhat unreliable.

Over Christmas they were at 7 days when I went down, and within the last 3 weeks have switched to 3 days, I'm watching closely because I need to re-book again for Feb 17th.

I’m here. It’s 3 days. I’m stalking the site to book our tests next week

Does anyone know what time Walgreens appointment times load in the night? Or is it different for each location?
Thanks!

As far as I know it's just after midnight. When I did my booking at Christmas, the new appt. times loaded about 12:45am. At least that was my experience - don't know if things have changed since then.
